TruckFest is back in Winona at MSC Southeast on August 19, and it's better than ever!

Attention great big trucks... and all who love them! This summer Minnesota State College Southeast will once again host a gathering of the big rigs on campus and invite everyone to get an up-close view of them.

TruckFest is on Saturday, August 19, 2023 from 11 am to 2 pm at the MSC Southeast Transportation Center, 1250 Homer Road, Winona, MN. There is no charge for admission and families with kids of all ages are welcome. Parking is free and convenient.

Enjoy climbing, exploring, and learning about many types of trucks and large vehicles in a fun, safe environment. The whole family is invited to honk some horns and get up close and personal with big rigs and more. 

This year, the college is celebrating its 75th year of service in Winona and 50th year in Red Wing. The Anniversary Committee is sponsoring bounce houses, prizes, a free hot dog lunch, and more.

"Every kid I've ever met has been fascinated by big trucks!" said Tom Gierok, who teaches Truck Driving at the college. 

"With Minnesota State College Southeast being a leader in transportation education in the southeast region, TruckFest is the perfect way to connect our community with the opportunities that exist in the trucking industry," he added.

Attention Drivers: There are no fees for drivers to participate in this event. If you'd like to be a part of TruckFest, please contact Tom Gierok at 507-453-2728 or [email protected].
